An homage to one of the most classic characters in mead history, Marion is named for Maid Marion, the legendary love interest of Robin Hood. Marion is one of our all time favorites at Superstition. It has won multiple awards over the years, including a Gold Medal at the Mazer Cup International in 2016. This craft beverage is an excellent expression of honey and berries, and pairs well with rich cheeses, charcuterie and dark chocolate.

Almost purple syrup. No head or gas. Super intense syrupy raspberries and blackberries. Mega sweet. Not so much obvious honey because of all the fruit but nice and sweet as an after dinner liqueur.

750ml bottle pours a deep purple, no head. Heavy legs. Nose has honey, jammy, mixed berry cobbler, some inky dark red grapes. Flavor is sweet but the berries add a bit of needed tartness, inky, honey, cranberry. Full bodied, sweet finish.

Bottle at the early December Ratebeer DC Tasting. Poured a very dark, juicy purple, berry red color, kind of like a very opaque red wine. Nice sweet, bold and boozy berry juice.
